Obelisk of Theodosius
Like many things in Turkey, the obelisk is a mishmash of several things from different times. The obelisk is from extra-bonus-ancient Egypt, ~1450 BC, but it was moved by Theodosius to Constantinople in 390AD and stuck on top of a marble bas-relief about how great Theodosius was. |
